Chance The Rapper Becoming Chance The Actor?

Chance The Rapper is trying is hand in another field; acting. 

Chance will star in a new movie called “Slice” from A24 that’s coming out next year. According to film creator Austin Vesely, Chance The Rapper will be playing Dax Lycander, a werewolf who is a former Chinese food delivery driver. Vesely gave a small description around Chance’s character. ” Basically, these murders start happening and they hearken back to an incident that happened with him years before, and they arouse the town’s suspicions.”

Vesely also went on to describe part of  scene featuring Chance and how he handled his character. “There is actually a chase scene,” said Vesely. “That scooter or that moped in the poster is kind of like a totem for Chance’s werewolf character. He speeds in and out like how the Joker comes in and out of “The Dark Knight.” That’s the inspiration for how we handled the Dax character.”

This be be Chance’s first feature film, and he released a small clip on his twitter account, which may be the beginning of the scene Vesely described. Not much has been said about the film as its still new, but the film will be released next year.
